  1. Et bien oui, esta mucho rapido for me. En cámara lenta sería genial :D (Non-Spanish speakers: Yes, far to quick. Slow motion would be great)
  2. Sorry to disappoint you, but I can't find anything clumsy about your build ... Should get myself a motorcycle for some major touring (will prpbably have to wait)
  3. I'm very sorry to hear these very sad tidings. Although I just got to know John, he inspired me, and made me enjoy my hobby. I wish his family a lot of strength with their loss, and the difficult time ahead. In my memory he will remain a good, and inspirational friend
  4. Michael, Just went over the last pages I've been missing out on lately. Great work ... 'specially on the shrouds and the brass fittings. You did use a stool to get to the top of the mast ... didn't you
  5. Mark, Glad to see you at the tools again. 'though it took some resizing a very lovely job on the capstan.
  6. Way to go Adrieke. Your solutions will be a nice manual for others whom will build this kit or want to build a shiny ship. You really are hard to keep up with - maybe I just should visit your log more often .... Well back to work
  7. Jason, Just poppin' in. A bit busy at the work front. Very nice job on the chainplates, and the rudder.
  8. Bob, I've just logged in since I don't know when last I visited. Seems ages ago. Glad you took her off the drawing board onto the wood. Be glad you didn't start it as a plug ... Now you only need to 'down size' the oversized bulkheads ... It will keep you and your tools sharp
  9. Great finish Bob. It seems the fat lady has sung Sorry to have missed your birthday, I would have liked to toast to you (anything to get a tot )
  10. You could have used the wood. Hard to find 30 foot planks, and if you do they'll be rather expensive You'll make a plank on frame/bulkhead or a solid hull? 11.25" isn't that big for POF/POB. P.s. Haven't found a solution to the IE10 problem, but haven't given up either
  11. Adrieke, After having translated the rigging instructions (and the photo instructions), you should be able to do them from the the hart Same goes for the build ...
  12. Adrieke, You've been pritty sharp/observant. it's good to redo those things, as later on they will irritate you, because you know you should have corrected them.
  13. Piet, Lovely job on the hull, it really comes out like a jewel the way it shines, and shows her smooth lines like that.
  14. JP, Did you take into account the deformation a drawing like that will show at the bow due to the bend in the planks ... I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't need to taper at all
  15. Mobbsie, Haven't been around much. Not a lot of time on my hands ... so I had my share of reading your log. Great planking job though. I might add you will certainly do great on the copper too!
  16. Nice details again! Good to see some action, 'though I understand it is sometimes better to take a brake
  17. Adrieke: Spot on ... congrats! For those interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HNLMS_Koning_der_Nederlanden
